These pissants just need to sod off, as the Brits like to say. They are so self absorbed that they actually believe someone will support them

Guess I confused with some other hack who worked for the campaign for less than a week before trump fired him. This was before Manafort

Any way this guy is a real piece of work

He’s nothing but a vote trap because DJT would be too powerful for the NWO establishment. His being in the CIA alone should be enough to put him on the No list.
